“Chuck & Larry” w/Adam Sandler: Filming at Soda Bar

Posted by dailyheights on Monday 11 September 2006 at 7:23 am

prospectplacer writes on the Prospect Heights Message Board regarding the film crews out on Vanderbilt Ave.:

“…So the movie is I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry. I know this because the hand-lettered street signs say ‘C&L’ and the doors of the trailers on Washington Ave. are marked ‘Larry’ and ‘Chuck’ and ‘Chuck Double’ and ‘Chuck Stunt.’ ”

“If you see bursts of dark smoke rising into the sky, it’s just a Hollywood thing…”

Barnable found a short synopsis of the plot of the film, which doesn’t sound like it’s destined for the Anytown USA Mall Cineplex (though we are living in the post-Will & Grace era, so who knows):

“Widowed fireman Larry Ellensworth is best buddies with infamous womanizer Chuck Ford … a desperate Larry (is about to lose his pension benefits) … he and Chuck pretend to be a gay couple in order to unkink the paperwork … and when Chuck falls hard for Alex while pretending to be gay, he finds that being a fireman’s wife is no life at all…”

UPDATE: oops… looks like this Adam Sandler flick is destined for the Cineplex after all…
